Extend iOS Alta app sessions

Hello!

The iOS app logs me out seemingly randomly all the time. For years, since I started with Alta. It’s usually when I am having an internet issue that I’ll open the app and need to rapidly diagnose it… and that’s exactly the wrong time to find I need to log in again, especially to get a second factor code from a password manager, for example.

I see no pattern, except maybe after device restarts? But it’s a personal device with biometrics and should really just stay logged in indefinitely, or until a password change, or a year, or… anything longer than rand() * 60 * 24 * 7.

TIA!

I’ve noticed this happens with me a lot (seems like it’s getting more frequent). I also run a local controller so sometimes the app will get into this state where it “can’t connect to the local controller” but completely closing the app and signing back in fixes the issue usually. For the really persistent issues, I log into my cloud controller account then switch back to the local controller. It just seems like some app weirdness to me possibly stemming from the app lifecycle on iOS and the session length but I can try to record it next time it happens.
